    Venus 03/11/07

    Decided to snap a picture of Venus while it is high enough with less distorsion. captured in mono to avoid color fringes around the rim.

    Venus is the brightest object in the night sky after the moon. It is now clearly seen in the West just after sunset.

    Thanks to All for your kind words. Venus should be looking better as time goes reaching its highest position after sunset and less distorsion.
